In the gold medal game of the S94 World juniors, Team world was up against Team Canada.

 

This very crucial game was dictated by special teams, i'm sure the coaches won't be very happy with those penalties which ended up leading to 50% of the goals being scored on the power play. This tendency started in the first period when Team World scored on the power play thanks to Dwight Schcrute. That was the only goal of the period. Team world doubled there lead in the second period making the score 2-0 Team world after yet another power play goal. I'm sure Canada's coach disciplined his troups, you can't take stupid penalties when you're in the final and now they're down by two. It worked, Canada bounced back in a spectacular fashion with 4 goals unanswered leading to the final score being 4-2 for them. A comeback signed Canada to win gold

While these teams couldn't get a gold medal, they can still take home the consolation prize: a bronze medal. This is Team Europe vs Team Asia in the S94 Worlds juniors. 

 

The first period was a calm one with no goals scored despite plenty of penalties being given. This was the calm before the storm has the second period saw 3 goals. Including one only seconds into it when Team Europe opened the score on the power play after 6 seconds. Team Asia quickly used a reverse card scoring a power play goal of their own just 2 minutes later. They followed that with another goal later on in the period taking the lead 2-1 by the time the second period ended. With 20 minutes left Team Europe desperately needed a goal. They knew that and went all in with a very offensive power play in the last few minutes. Sadly for them, this backfired and Team Asia scored while short-handed to put the nail in the coffin of Europe. 

 

Team Asia wins 3-1 despite the shots being 53 to 32 for Europe. It is safe to say Roger Eagles' incredible 52 save game stole the show
